4.6 Billion Year Symphony of Evolution

The End of the Paleozoic Era Chapter 2032: Instinct

"I feel...very uncomfortable..."

This is the edge of the corpse city... The cold land is still in darkness.

But because the starry sky here is very bright, you can easily see the surrounding environment.

I can also clearly see... those shadows floating around in the city.

From the beginning, Lin could feel that the shadow was emitting some... very strong 'aura of fear'.

This will affect Ershimin's nervous system, causing Bilu to feel very uncomfortable.

Lin's Veronica could also feel it... Lin discovered that this was not a signal or brain wave sent from the shadow, but a kind of...'fear in the nuclear information'.

Simply put, it is a kind of "instinctive fear", a sense of fear hidden deep in the Ershimin nuclear information, which was triggered at this moment.

Lin wasn't quite sure what triggered this feeling, but it was obviously related to these shadows.

This is not pure fear, but is accompanied by many other uncomfortable feelings, such as the feeling of being crushed by a huge object, the feeling of being buried deep underground, etc.

Now, whenever I see those shadows, this kind of fear arises deep in my nervous system...

Lin thought that this might be some kind of method they used against the Ershi people. They were originally here to deal with the Ershi people, but...how did they do it? If they sent brain wave signals to make the Ershi people uncomfortable, it would be easy to understand.

But this kind of... they seemed to have triggered the instinctive fear in the Ershi people in some way.

Maybe the statue I saw in the city before is somehow related to this.

Because Bilu felt really uncomfortable staying in the city, Lin drove the mecha to the edge of the city first.

You can see that the number of shadows in the city is increasing, and they seem to be preparing for something strange...

"Hmm...I feel a little better." Bilu shook her head and opened her eyes.

This kind of 'instinctive fear' does no real harm to the nervous system and can be overcome by willpower.

Now Bilu seems to have almost overcome it.

But it seems that it is not so easy to enter the city.

Because Lin saw a lot of... mummies moving.

Although none of them had been seen before, they suddenly appeared now, most of them crawling out from buildings or holes in the ground.

Like the shadows, this group of mummies that suddenly appeared also wandered around the city... seemingly walking around aimlessly.

"Veronica-san... this really has turned into a ghost town! I'm totally fine now! Let's go in and have some adventures inside!"

Bilu had indeed completely overcome her fear, so Lin activated the mecha again. The scorpion-shaped mecha moved its body and walked into the city.

When the mecha approached, Lin discovered... the mummies here didn't react at all.

They didn't pounce on it and bite it as they did before, but just hung around there, as if the mecha was transparent.

When Lin drove the mecha into the city streets, their reaction was still the same. They didn't even care when Lin stepped on a few of them.

It seems that they have entered some kind of...strange state.

So Lin began to explore the city again.

Lin first went back to a statue of the Ershi people in the city and found that... there was nothing special about it.

Although the fear was triggered here before, when I came back here... I didn’t find anything.

All you can see is a large group of shadows floating around.

So Lin went to look somewhere else.

This city is quite large, and the buildings made of mummies are spreading all the time... If the residents of this city are Ershi people, then it should be able to accommodate hundreds of thousands of people.

But the inhabitants here are just mummies and shadows.

And... the corpse craftsman worm.

Lin has never seen any corpse-maker worms. Although she had learned from the exploration team member that there were quite a few corpse-maker worms, she has not seen any now.

That means...

"Ah, it's the one called Ryan!"

Bilu suddenly pointed at the screen and shouted. It could be seen that on the street ahead, there was an Ershi man running at a very fast speed among a group of mummies.

There was also a large group of mummies chasing around it, with more mummies joining in nearby.

This Ershimin was obviously the previous Ryan. The mummy did not ignore it like it ignored the mecha, but kept chasing it.

But Lin also noticed that the mummies would only chase it when it approached about one meter away, and those that were farther away would not react.

But once the mummies chase it, it’s useless to run far away...that’s why it runs with a large group of mummies.

Out of curiosity, Lin also controlled the mecha to chase after it.

The mummies chasing Ryan reacted to the mecha at this time, and some of the mummies running behind turned around and attacked the mecha.

They kept gnawing at the mecha with their fragile teeth, but the mecha easily shook off the group of mummies and continued to chase Ryan.

After chasing for a while, Ryan seemed very tired and its speed became slower and slower.

But it also reached its destination, which was... a crossroads.

In the center of the intersection, Lin could see an Ershimin lying there. Maybe that was another team member?

Ryan rushed to the side of the team member and lay there crying, but the next moment he was surrounded by a large group of mummies.

Its protective suit... doesn't have very strong defensive power.

The mummy bit through the protective suit, as well as Ryan's skin, flesh, and internal organs...

Under the siege of a large group of mummies, it soon became a pile of minced meat.

"Wow...it feels horrible."

Then, the mummies dispersed under Bilu's sigh, and they also lost interest in the mecha.

Lin controlled the mecha and slowly walked to the side of Ryan's...remnant and one of its Ershi members.

This team member's body was intact, but the cause of his death was similar to the last one, with a hole in his protective suit.

Why doesn't the mummy bite it?

In doubt, Lin examined the team member's body and found its recording device.

This recording device...is different from the previous one.

The previous one described what it was like to live here for a few days and nights, and this one... describes what it was like to live here for three hundred... days and nights.

How did it take so long?

Obviously this was something very interesting, so Lin took a closer look.

This Ershimin was also a member of the exploration team. Like other team members, he immediately decided to come to the cold land after communicating with the exhibition hall.

Then, like the other team members, he got lost in this city of zombies.

The only difference is that it seems to have lived here for a particularly long time.
